What now?
Building your Smelne motor yacht is a journey we make together, from the first conversation to the launch. We involve you in every step, ensure clear communication and create transparency, so that you always know where you stand. Only then will a pleasant building process arise.
1. Consultation and advice
In our first conversation we listen carefully to your wishes and dreams. Together we create a custom design that perfectly matches your vision and needs.
2. Shell construction
Our craftsmen start building the hull, using only blasted grade A steel. This forms the solid and reliable base of your Smelne motor yacht.
3. Conservation and protection
Once the hull is complete, it is thoroughly blasted and treated with a two-component paint system of the highest quality, providing protection to the base that will keep your yacht in top condition for years to come.
4. Technical installation and finishing
The technical installation is expertly installed, followed by the floors, panelling and interior. The exterior gets its high-quality topcoat, after which our experts in the finishing hall perfect the yacht further.
5. Testing on the water
Your yacht will be put to the test: both our experts and you will test the yacht down to the last detail, so that you can experience what it means to sail a Smelne.
6. Christening and a safe journey
When the yacht is ready, we will make sure that you as the owner feel completely at home. The sea trials give you the chance to get to know the ship, and if desired, we will organize a festive christening. Together with our entire team, we wish you a safe journey.
